Synthesis of alkynylcyclooctatetraenes and alkynylcubanes
摘要:
The couplings of a variety of iodocubanes with terminal acetylenes in refluxing NEt3 in the presence of Cu(I) and Pd(0) were examined. The products, isolated in about 50% yield, were not alkynylcubanes but were instead the first examples of alkynyl-1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraenes. The first examples of alkynylcubanes (cubylacetylenes) were themselves synthesized in modest yield by Negishi's procedure from alkyl cubyl ketones. Cubylacetylenes were shown to be stable under Heck-like coupling conditions and potentially useful thereby for the introduction of the cubylacetylene moiety into complex systems.

Herein, an improved methodology for aryl‐cubane cross‐coupling is reported. The peculiarities of the cubane core and its behavior during cross‐coupling conditions were analyzed, while the versatility of this adapted Baran cross‐coupling methodology was demonstrated by the synthesis of various aryl‐cubane systems, including coupling products of cubanes and porphyrins. Furthermore, arm extension of alkynyl‐cubanes
